While I do not really believe that my year has been a sum of the following things, I really needed to take a moment and look back on all of the blog posts, tweets, and tagged links. I think I needed to see some impact as this year dwindles to a close. I could go ahead and make this into one of those Mastercard “Priceless” commercials, but I think that cheapens the contributions I have made. While these numbers are by no means impressive, they do represent where I am in my thinking and in my digital footprint.
I have thought a lot about all of the different things that I could measure this year with and against. At the beginning of this year, I set a goal of blogging every day. Somewhere around April, I decided that there were other priorities that required my attention, so I fell about 200 blog posts short. While I consider my goals for the coming year, I would still like to make numbers a part of my strategy, but a smaller part. Instead of writing a year in review that measures the number of blog posts I wrote, I would like to measure the number of conversations I started or the number of questions that I asked or answered. That, to me, will feel much more real and satisfying than numbers of words typed or tweets sent. Any ideas on how to do that?
